FAQ
Common questions.
Is this only for lacrosse players?
No. Kai has deep lacrosse experience, but speed, strength, coordination, and movement quality carry over to many sports.
What age athletes do you train?
It depends on maturity, goals, and fit. Send the athlete’s age, sport, and training history so I can recommend the right next step.
Is this private or group training?
This page is focused on private or small-format athlete training. My Lax Academy is the better place for lacrosse teams, clinics, and larger group programs.
Will this replace sport practice?
No. This supports the athlete’s movement, strength, and confidence so they can get more out of practices and games.
